Answer:


\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{ \text{ \: (4 \: ,\: 5.5)}}}}

Explanation:


\text{Let \: the \: points \: be \: A\: and \:B} :


\rm{A(6 \:, 1) \longrightarrow \: (x1 \: ,y1)}


\rm{B(2 \: 10) \longrightarrow \: (x2 ,\: y2)}


\text{Finding \: the \: midpoint} :


\boxed{ \rm{midpoint = ( (x1 \:+ x2)/(2) \: , \: (y1 + y2)/(2) )}}


\rm{ \: ↦ midpoint = ( (6 + 2)/(2) \: , ( 1 + 10)/(2) )}


\rm{↦midpoint = ( (8)/(2) \: , (11)/(2) )}


\rm{↦ midpoint = (4 \: ,\: 5.5 \: )}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D
